RE: Qualcom (and other) Android CVE IDs

[Beverly Finch <beverlyfinch@lenovo.com>]

I suppose one of the charts in the deck we reviewed in the past few 
weeks addresses this problem where number of CVEs is reserved but not 
'published.'
If Qualcomm (and others) are publishing the CVEs without submitting the 
descriptions back to Mitre, shouldn't someone be reaching out to them 
to 'remind' them of the process?
Or would this be a full time job for someone?

Also the thread on oss-sec:

http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2017/q2/378

With some interesting notes like:

http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2017/q2/380

=======
I don't know about apple itself but in the clusterfuzz reports I see 4 
public bugs about sqlite. However they have a very small (2 days) range 
of regression, i.e. a commit made in those two days causes the problem.
I didn't check, but I suspect they didn't go in any release.

FTR, the time you are seeing in the regression range is UTC:
https://github.com/google/oss-fuzz/issues/563

At this point I don't know if apple referer to those issues or the 
mentioned issues are not public.

Basically these issues have CVE's but I (nor anyone else really) has 
any clue what is actually affected and if we need to deal with it or 
not.
Kind of defeats the point :P.
